Camerons host Queen and Duke lunch

David and Samantha Cameron are to play host to the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh in Downing Street.

The Prime Minister and his wife will be holding a lunch at Number 10 to celebrate Philip's recent 90th birthday.

Mr Cameron spoke of the country's gratitude for Philip's work earlier this month, before the Duke became a nonagenarian on June 10.

The Prime Minister described the royal as a "remarkable man who has given years of his service to our country, someone who has defended his nation in time of war, a man who has stood alongside Her Majesty the Queen for over six decades, a man who has given his time and effort and passion to so many great causes up and down the country, across the Commonwealth and indeed the world".
